Study computing and data science abroad

Curiosity, code & discovery

From building software to finding patterns in data, computing offers many ways to turn curiosity into something useful. Studying abroad brings you into a new learning community, with different perspectives on the problems technology can help solve.

Explore more than one route into technology

Computer science develops foundations in algorithms, programming and systems. Artificial intelligence and data science explore learning from data, while cybersecurity focuses on understanding and protecting digital systems. Some programmes combine computing with another field, such as biology, economics or music.

Read the modules with your own interests in mind. Do you enjoy building things, working through mathematical questions or investigating real-world data? Compare the amount of programming, group work and independent projects. For a master’s, check how your previous learning fits the course’s starting point.
